September 19-21: Juan Lopez Showcase
Juan Lopez is from Corrales, NM. He began his jewelry-making career with beadwork and silver overlay pieces. After seeing a piece of filigree work at Santa Fe's Museum of International Folk Art, Juan was inspired to learn the art of gold and silver filigree. Juan was unable to obtain any tools or firsthand information because the filigree work in New Mexico had died out in the 1950s. Undaunted, Juan learned the art by looking at old filigree work and experimenting with silver until he was happy with the results.
Experience the rich artistic heritage of the West with an array of Spanish, Native American, and Western artists, each bringing their unique style and storytelling to life through their creations.
